Guarded by more than 20 soldiers, Wang Xiaolai galloped wildly, and walked for twenty or thirty miles, and only stopped when he saw a huge willow tree on the side of the road.

The six sons and the second tiger who led the team helped Wang Xiaolai, who was about to vomit on the horse, and respectfully let Wang Xiaolai sit under the root of the tree, and handed over a pot of water.

"Your Excellency, are you alright?"

Liuzi asked.

Wang Xiaolai will not do anything at this time except waving his hand, what do you think, he is a modern person, galloping dozens of miles on horseback, how can he feel better, and it is not like last time, the horse walks slowly.

"Gross!"

The sixth son and the second tiger both turned their heads in disgust.

···

In Juxian Village, the monkey has found Narcissus, but at this time, Narcissus is fighting with Su Bingwen and Hua Nan, with one enemy and two, Narcissus is not left behind, and his combat effectiveness is so strong that he is worthy of being the commander of the dark guard.

"Lord Narcissus."

Hearing someone shouting about himself, Narcissus forced Su Bingwen and Hua Nan away, and then turned around and saw that it was Liu Mianyi's commander, and he was dissatisfied: "What does your general do to eat, and the time is agreed, why don't you move?" ”

The monkey said: "My lord, I was ordered by the general to tell you that Wang Xiaolai and Lord Wang have been rescued, and the general said, let the lord retreat through the back door." ”

When Narcissus heard this, he was a little disbelieving: "Really? ”

The monkey nodded: "The little one dares to take the head as a guarantee." ”

Seeing this, Narcissus decisively put his hand in his mouth and blew the retreat horn three times.

As soon as the horn sounded, dozens of secret guards threw away the opponent who fought with great determination, and the retreat was completed in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Su Bingwen didn't dare to chase after him, shaking the bloody tiger's mouth, and rushed away Narcissus and said cruelly: "It's mostly because you run fast, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you." ”

It's a pity that Narcissus didn't put Su Bingwen's words in his ears at all.

Let Narcissus lead the team away in style, in a room in Juxianzhuang, the little pigtailed girl looked at the back of Narcissus leading people away in mid-air, and asked Annuer with a smile: "Sui Yang Secret Guard, how is it better than your sticky pole?" ”

Annuer smiled proudly, and her voice was a little sharp: "Half a catty and eight taels, but the slave's sticky rod is slightly inferior." ”

The little pigtailed girl was a little unresponsive: "Alas? ”

Annuer laughed: "The sticky rod of the slave is not as good as many vases of this dark guard." ”

Knowing what Annuer meant, the little pigtailed girl burst out laughing.

···

After leaving Juxianzhuang, joining forces with Liu Mianyi, and leaving the road for three or four miles, everyone stopped to count the battle damage.

At the same time, Narcissus also asked Liu Mianyi where Wang Xiaolai was at this time.

As soon as he said the matter, Narcissus finally breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the direction of Juxianzhuang and sneered: "At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he dares to have the recklessness of fornication, hum, it is really too long." ”

Liu Mianyi heard that his body was cold.

The dark guard has always been the best sharp knife to remove nails in the hands of the empress, and being targeted by the dark guard, what will happen to this Juxian Zhuang in the future, naturally there is no need to say much.

"Let's go, go see that bastard Wang Xiaolai." Narcissus collected his weapon and said.

Liu Mianyi nodded, led the team to go back, and at dawn, under the willow tree, he saw Wang Xiaolai who was asleep.

When Narcissus saw it, she smiled at the time, but her smile was still cold, and it was a little infiltrating: "We were born and died one night, and he was so comfortable." ”

Liu Mianyi didn't dare to speak, so he watched Narcissus get off the horse and kick Wang Xiaolai in front of him.

Wang Xiaolai, who was still rubbing his eyes in a daze and didn't know what was going on, heard Narcissus's very unhappy tone: "Lord Wang, did you sleep well?" ”

Wang Xiaolai was most afraid of narcissus, as soon as he heard the voice of narcissus, he was not hysterical, and he came to his senses directly, and he was full of smiling faces: "I'm back, hard work." ”

Looking at Wang Xiaolai's cheap appearance, no matter how Narcissus thought about it, he couldn't understand why His Majesty valued such a thing so much.

···

Ouchi of the Imperial Palace.

It has been eight days since Wang Xiaolai was taken away, and in the past few days, except for the first two days, the empress was in a trance, and the rest of the days were as calm as ever, and she could do whatever she wanted.

But only the personal maid who took care of the empress in private knew that almost every day when reviewing the excerpts, His Majesty had to break a pen.

Princess Suizhu, who has been safely sent back, has been grounded by the empress in Chengqian Palace, and she was almost whipped in front of everyone.

"What are you thinking?"

Just when the maid was out of her trance, the empress's voice came, which frightened the maid and hurriedly knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty forgives your sins, Your Majesty forgives your sins." ”

The empress got up and helped her maid, patted her on the shoulder, and sighed, "Go and help me grind." ”

When the maid heard this, she had to cautiously go to the dragon book case, picked up the ink block, and looked at the back of the empress with concern.

"Your Majesty."

Just as the empress was standing on the main hall and looking at the scene outside the door, the old eunuch Zhao Liwen came over with a letter.

When the empress saw that it was Zhao Liwen, she bowed her hand: "Zhao Weng is here." ”

Zhao Liwen hurriedly kowtowed: "Your Majesty has tormented the old minister." ”

The empress smiled and motioned for Zhao Liwen to sit down.

After thanking the lord Longen, he sat down, and before he could sit down, the empress couldn't wait to ask, "Narcissus has news?" ”

Zhao Liwen shook his head: "It's not from Narcissus, but the wasteland planned by Your Majesty for refugees to live in, which has been preliminarily mined, and the official in charge has written to ask Your Majesty if he will take the next step." ”

When the empress heard this, she couldn't help but be a little impatient, and waved her hand very casually: "Carry it out." ”

Zhao Liwen frowned when he saw this: "Your Majesty! ”

The empress looked up: "What's wrong?" ”

After all, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, even if it is Zhao Liwen's status, he can only sigh and say that it is okay.

The empress is such a smart person, how could she not know what Zhao Liwen meant, and was about to say two words, when a small yellow door broke in outside: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! ”

Zhao Liwen turned around and scolded: "It's ridiculous, in front of the holy driver, what kind of system." ”

The little yellow door shrank aggrievedly aside.

The empress waved her hand, signaled that it was okay, looked up and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Xiao Huangmen glanced at Zhao Liwen and saw that the latter was not to blame, so he dared to speak: "Back to Your Majesty, Lord Narcissus has sent news that she has arrived at the city gate." ”

The empress stood up suddenly: "Just her?" ”

Xiao Huangmen hurriedly shook his head: "No, no, no, there are Liu Mianyi, an officer of the Wangcheng Guards, and Wang Xiaolai, Yulinlang." ”

Hearing Wang Xiaolai's name, the empress's face obviously flashed with joy, all of which was captured by Zhao Liwen.

"Okay, I know, let's go down."

The little yellow door replied yes and turned to go.

Knowing that Wang Xiaolai was safe and sound, the empress had a smile on her face again, she turned her head to look at Zhao Liwen, and said with a smile: "Zhao Weng, you just said that the wasteland for resettlement of refugees has been completely developed, do you have a detailed report?" ”

Zhao Liwen frowned, he has been on duty in the palace since the time of the old emperor, and there are some things that the Eight Sages King can't say, but he, Zhao Liwen, can say.

"Your Majesty, forgive your courage."

"Huh?"

"Why do you value a little Habayashi Lang so much? As the king of a country, the most important thing at the moment is how to resettle the tens of thousands of refugees outside Daxing City, and you must not live up to the high expectations of the people. ”

The empress was silent when she heard this, met Zhao Liwen's gaze, and smiled for a long time: "Zhao Weng, you don't have to think about it, I am grateful to Wang Xiaolai for saving his life. ”

Zhao Liwen shook his head: "No, Your Majesty, the old slave watched you grow up, and you never lie." ”

The empress turned around and waved at the grinding maid, who understood and hurriedly retreated.

After the others left, the empress sighed and said: "In the end, it's Zhao Weng, what I'm thinking, you know, yes, I really value Wang Xiaolai." ”

Hearing the empress admit, Zhao Liwen was shocked at the time: "Your Majesty, are you..."

The empress only looked at Zhao Liwen, knowing that he would be wrong: "Zhao Weng, I ask you, how is the current household?" ”

Zhao Liwen hissed: "This..."

"Pretty rubbish, isn't it?" Empress Dao.

Zhao Liwen was embarrassed.

The empress snorted: "Zhao Weng, you don't have to hide it, there are only you and me here, there are no six ears, I asked, Zhao Weng said truthfully." ”

Zhao Liwen sighed: "It is true that as Your Majesty said, today's household department, unlike twenty years ago, when refugees flowed to the vicinity of Jingshi, they did not ignore it, and such behavior, where they can continue to stay in the household department." ”

The empress hehe: "Not only the household department, but among the six departments, except for the military department, which one is not the same?" The Manchu Dynasty only knows how to enjoy, and none of them do practical things, Zhao Weng, I won't tell you, I have long had the idea of kicking these walking corpses down and replacing them with a capable one. ”

Zhao Liwen was taken aback when he heard this: "Your Majesty, the interests of the DPRK and China are too involved to be transferred at will, and Wang Xiaolai to him, he is young, how to enter the head of the household department, not to mention, not to mention." ”

"Zhao Weng, don't worry, I didn't think about letting Wang Xiaolai join the head of the household department, he is just a suitable candidate at present." Empress Dao.

Zhao Liwen took a breath, but still shook his head: "Your Majesty, no matter what you say, Wang Xiaolai is not suitable for the position of the household department, he is frivolous, does not understand etiquette, and is embarrassed." ”

The empress hehe: "Then Zhao Weng, do you know that this refugee incident that should have been resolved by the household department was brought up by him, Wang Xiaolai." ”

Raising his head suddenly, Zhao Liwen was stunned.
